Sharjah-based airline Air Arabia is preparing to conduct an invitation-only engineering recruitment event in Colombo between November 17 and 19, creating a potential employment pathway for suitably qualified Sri Lankan aviation professionals interested in working in the UAE.
The recruitment programme is linked to vacancies across several technical and aircraft maintenance divisions, including line maintenance, base maintenance and workshops. Positions advertised through the airline’s careers platform include B1 and B2 engineers, aircraft technicians, cabin maintenance specialists and sheet-metal professionals.
Candidates are required to apply for the relevant advertised vacancies through Air Arabia’s official recruitment platform. The company has indicated that the Colombo event is intended for applicants who are available to attend in person and who are shortlisted and invited to participate.
The recruitment drive is particularly relevant to Sri Lanka’s aviation maintenance sector, where experienced technical professionals may be interested in opportunities with an established regional airline. Successful applicants could gain access to employment within the UAE aviation industry, subject to the airline’s selection process and applicable professional qualifications.
However, this is not an open walk-in recruitment fair. Applicants should not travel to an interview venue without receiving an official invitation. They should also verify the vacancy requirements, application status and event arrangements directly through Air Arabia’s careers website.
